is being a narcissist or become domineering, mainly in a management sense, but not exclusively.

1. Director - ESTJ

Narcissist Tendency™:

The Director, together with the Developer, are known for their bluntness, business acumen
and ability to lead. As narcissists, however, their leadership would become a dictatorship.

efficiency, but for the purpose of feeling superior.

Domineering Tendency™:

The Director is focussed and intense and can sometimes be a bit domineering. They have a hard time
taking a backseat to others and are best suited as leaders. They can become frustrated with inefficiency,
so they desire to ensure that everyone does things correctly. They can be a bit hard on others when
they are trying to get tasks finished properly, simply because they know how they want things done.
They prefer to take charge to ensure that everyone is following orders and working their best. Their
natural personalities are certainly dominant and are less likely to submit to someone else’s demands.

above everything else and want to ensure that everything is being done properly.

3. Results - ESTP

Narcissist Tendency™:

The Results, together with the Inspirational, are natural-born devil’s advocates so,
as narcissists, this trait would be exaggerated in their ability to provoke and demean
others. They would argue in favour of horrific crimes or blatant inequalities just to
make the people they are debating with angry and / or upset. They would be hypercritical
and abrasive, as well as emotionally abusive. Their cruel bluntness would be disguised as,
"That’s just the way I am."

times where they can seem a bit domineering, especially when they are trying to inform someone.

Narcissist Tendency™:

The Inspirational, together with the Results, are natural-born devil’s advocates so,

enjoy taking on new challenges and absolutely love seeking out the many possibilities around them.

is not paying attention to something important. When the Inspirational values something they
want to be sure that other people do not step on or disrespect that. For the most part they
prefer to have their own space and do not want to invade the space of others.

5. Persuader - ENFJ

Narcissist Tendency™:

The Persuader is a natural born influencer and ‘teacher’ that would demand that their
‘students’ worship them. As narcissists, they may become predatory and cross boundaries
with those they are ‘educating.’

Domineering Tendency™:

The Persuader enjoys making people happy and does not want to upset or harm people.
Although they are tender and loving people, they do have domineering tendencies. When it
comes to getting things done, they are not afraid of taking charge in order to make sure things
actually happen the right way. They are not likely to push people around in an upsetting way,
since they are actually great at motivating people naturally. Their charismatic and friendly
personalities really help them keep a leadership role without causing any discord. They are
capable of being rather dominant people, but they do it without trying to upset people although
they have a tendency to interfere which can grate, sometimes massively, on other patterns.

6. Appraiser - ESFJ

Narcissist Tendency™:

The Appraiser would create enmeshed relationships and have no problem violating the boundaries
of others. When healthy, they are empathic and giving. But as narcissists, they would ‘give’
only to get back. They may give the bare minimum to people and forcefully demand the maximum in return.

Domineering Tendency™:

The Appraiser is generally not domineering as they prefer to keep the peace. They do not want to be
seen as pushy, but they do have the occasionally bossy tendencies. They simply want to get things done
and have some high-strung parts to their personality. They enjoy doing everything they can to take
care of their loved ones and focus mainly on tending to their needs. They are loving people and generally
do not like being too aggressive towards others.

7. Promoter - ENFP

Narcissist Tendency™:

The Promoter when in narcissist mode would always be seeking validation and attention from
others. These would probably be the more ‘vulnerable’ narcissists compared to the other patterns,
using their relationships with others to hide their core sense of shame.

Domineering Tendency™:

The Promoter is definitely strong-willed who has a somewhat domineering side. In most cases, the
Promoter would rather go with the flow and enjoy life as it comes at them. They do not want to be seen
as too pushy, since they prefer to remain positive. They do have times where they realise they need
to take charge of the situation and can be rather intimidating and obnoxious when this happens.
They are usually capable of being dominant without upsetting people too much, since they are charismatic
and likable people on the surface. But they can rank as the most obnoxious
Click Here. You have been warned.

8. Counselor - ESFP

Narcissist Tendency™:

The Counselor is the party animal who tends to be the life of the party. As a narcissist,
they would create harems of adoring fans that cater to their every need and ‘get off’ on all
of the attention they are receiving. They love to be the centre of attention and would be
perpetual spotlight-hoggers. They are also very into aesthetics, so they may present as
a more ‘somatic’ narcissist – someone overly obsessed with their looks and appearance.

Domineering Tendency™:

The Counselor is usually light-hearted and carefree who enjoys living in the present moment.
They do not want to appear domineering and prefer being able to be positive. They just want to
have fun and do not want to have other people forcing them to be more grounded. They can become
frustrated with controlling or domineering people and are not afraid to challenge them.
They do not want to be tamed or controlled since they prefer to live their lives their own way.

9. Specialist - ISFP

Narcissist Tendency™:

The Specialist, together with the Achiever, are gentle as non-narcissists but, as narcissists,
would present as a pessimistic a person who hates or distrusts humankind. They would be the ones
constantly griping about how unfair the world is, how they are always the victim and how they
never get their fair share. They would work to underhandedly sabotage anyone who has what they covet.

Domineering Tendency™:

The Specialist is certainly not domineering and prefers to live a much more carefree lifestyle.
They enjoy living in the present moment and simply want to absorb the beauty in the world around them.
They enjoy following their heart and simply want to feel free to do so. They are not pushy or
controlling; they simply want to live their own lives in harmony. They want people to give them space
to be themselves and, at the same time, the Specialist does not want to try and control others. This is
why they are terrible leaders.

10. Investigator - INFJ

Narcissist Tendency™:

The Investigator, together with the Agent, as a narcissist would abuse their power as
the change maker and would be ‘covert’ narcissists – a wolf in sheep’s clothing. They
would take their perfectionism and ability to cut off relationships to the extreme by
frequently abruptly cutting off all contact with someone (such as a former romantic partner)
by no longer accepting or responding to phone calls, text messages, etc. and criticizing
them to the nth degree. Rather than using their platforms to help support the populations
they serve, they might attempt to use them to feed their grandiosity.

Domineering Tendency™:

The Investigator is definitely not domineering especially when it comes to social settings.
They do not want to be too pushy and prefer to give people their space. They want to let people
be themselves, without feeling intimated by someone else. They do not want to ever make someone
feel small, so they are comfortable taking a step back. They do not like to take charge, since
the Investigator is usually inside of their own inner minds running through many different ideas.

They are not afraid of taking charge when required, they simply prefer not to live their lives that way.

The Agent, together with the Investigator, as a narcissist would abuse their power as
the change maker and would be ‘covert’ narcissists – a wolf in sheep’s clothing. They
would take their perfectionism and ability to cut off relationships to the extreme by
frequently abruptly cutting off all contact with someone (such as a former romantic partner)
by no longer accepting or responding to phone calls, text messages, etc. and criticizing
them to the nth degree. Rather than using their platforms to help support the populations
they serve, they might attempt to use them to feed their grandiosity.

Domineering Tendency™:

The Agent is very internal and gentle who prefers to keep to themselves most of the time.
They are usually not domineering people and enjoy letting others do their own thing. They do not
want to be viewed as controlling or pushy and would much rather take a step back. They are terrible
leaders as they do not like the feeling of taking charge of other people. They do not want to be
seen as intimidating, although they can become that way if necessary. Ultimately they prefer to
keep to themselves, making them very introspective and private people.

12. Achiever - ISTP

Narcissist Tendency™:

The Achiever, together with the Specialist, are gentle as non-narcissists but, as narcissists,
would present as a pessimistic a person who hates or distrusts humankind. They would be the ones
constantly griping about how unfair the world is, how they are always the victim and how they
never get their fair share. They would work to underhandedly sabotage anyone who has what they covet.

Domineering Tendency™:

13. Practitioner - ISFJ

Narcissist Tendency™:

The Practitioner is generous to a fault as a non-narcissist. However, as a narcissist,
they would present as the quintessential covert, shy and introverted helper with a hidden
entitled streak. Although they will appear humble at the onset, make no mistake, they will
be taking note of everything they do for you and at any time they feel they are not getting
the attention or appreciation they deserve they will lash out. This can be in a terrifying display of
narcissistic rage or passive-aggressive behaviour if they do not get what they want.

Domineering Tendency™:

The Practitioner is definitely not domineering and, in many cases, are more submissive than most.
They want to make other people happy and truly hate any kind of discord or conflict. They would rather
keep the peace and work hard to maintain a sense of harmony in their environment. In a conflict situation,
such as in a meeting they will be come passive-aggressive. They are the masters of this.
More on this in Obnoxiousness Explorer™.
They do not want to see people feeling uncomfortable in their presence and would rather be liked by their community.
They are kind and loving people who are constantly tending to the needs of others. They are not
afraid of letting someone else take charge of a situation, but can become aggravated with people who
have an arrogant attitude.

14. Objective Thinker - ISTJ

Narcissist Tendency™:

The OT, as a narcissist would stonewall their partners, shutting down arguments even before
they have had a chance to begin. They would be extremely traditional in the way they view things
and use moralistic thinking to control others, all while engaging in hypocritical behaviour behind
closed doors. In the realm of work, they would gravitate towards careers in power – such as that
of law enforcement – just to abuse their power and get away with it.

Domineering Tendency™:

The OT is hardworking and focussed who prefers to keep to them self. Most of the time, they just want
to have their own space to get done what needs too be done. They do not want to be pushed around by
people, but they also have no desire to be bossy towards others. They much prefer to have independence
and space to get their work done and improve themselves. There may be moments where they can be a
tad domineering, especially when they feel like people are not taking things seriously. They simply
value work ethic and morals and become frustrated if people are too flighty and inconsiderate.

15. Perfectionist - INTP

Narcissist Tendency™:

The Perfectionist, together with the Enhancer, as a narcissist would take their rational side
way too far. They would be the epitome of what we call the “cerebral narcissist,” using twisted
logic to rationalize any mess or situation they have created. They would be prone to dehumanising
others all in the name of reason. Their logical side would be so overblown that they would fail
to have any empathy for victims of unfortunate circumstances or crimes – including the crimes
they themselves committed.

Domineering Tendency™:

The Perfectionist is generally not domineering as they prefer to take a less aggressive approach.
They want to make the proper information known, since they crave precision. They simply do not want
to be overly domineering in order to express the facts and educate people. They can be a bit intense
to other people, but that is simply their natural personality mostly because of such a rich and active
inner mind. They can have moments where their desire to be accurate can cause them to become somewhat
domineering and forward in a situation. One just has to look at Australian Chief Medical Officer Prof. Brendan
Murphy's attitude in the COVID-19 situation where he suddenly has huge public power after 40 years of
absolutely none. He appears to be a schoolmaster, with a Catholic name, who is angry that his instructions are being ignored.
At the press conference, he treats the adult public as children - 'If this continues, you will be punished'.
In most cases though, the Perfectionist prefers to take a step back and simply observe things from a distance
as they are terrible leaders and do not want to lead anyway.

16. Enhancer - INTJ

Narcissist Tendency™:

The Enhancer, together with the Perfectionist, as a narcissist would take their rational side
way too far. They would be the epitome of what we call the “cerebral narcissist,” using twisted
logic to rationalize any mess or situation they have created. They would be prone to dehumanising
others all in the name of reason. Their logical side would be so overblown that they would fail
to have any empathy for victims of unfortunate circumstances or crimes – including the crimes
they themselves committed.

Domineering Tendency™:

The Enhancer is independent and strong likes to do things their own way. When it comes to getting things
done, they actually can be a bit (a lot) domineering. They do not try to be intimidating, but sometimes their
natural intelligence and desire for accuracy can be a bit intense for people. They know how to take charge
when it is necessary and can be rather dominant people. They are not afraid of being in this position and
are perfectly capable of willing to take charge. They will not tolerate being half in charge. e.g. They will let the
Persuader take over and watch where their wise advice is ignored (and say to themselves "I told you so").
They could not care about criticism but you would be wise never to blame an Enhancer, nor start a conflict,
in a situation when it was clearly not their fault.
As long as they are helping people learn and helping better their own minds, they are will pleased
to be in charge. This supports the notion that they are better in charge of a team compared with being on
one, especially if the leader of their team is mediocre or worse. Did someone say KFC, err, Practitioner?

Black and White Knight Narcissists

The Black Knight Narcissist is evil in nature, influence, or effect. They get their narcissistic
supplies from sadistically setting out to demolish other people’s self-esteem and pleasure in life.

The White Knight Narcissist likes to be seen as a good person. They get their narcissistic
supplies by doing helpful, generous and kind things for other people.
This means that they still:
Have shaky self-esteem; Lack whole object relations and object constancy — they cannot see themselves
or other people in a stable, integrated and realistic way as simultaneously having both liked and
disliked traits; Are extremely self-centered; Lack emotional empathy and cannot feel other people’s
joy or sadness nor care deeply about anyone else’s feelings; Are preoccupied with their place in
whatever status hierarchy matters to them; Want to be seen as special; Devalue other people when it
suits them.
Key observable characteristics of a White Knight Narcissist includes:
They want you to think they are good people; They will do favours for other people that make them
look good; If they are wealthy, they are likely to be philanthropists who give away large sums of
money to causes that they support as long as they get public recognition for doing so.
Some, however, are “the good neighbour narcissists.” They will offer to pick up groceries for sick
neighbours or help someone to put up their window screens or do some other chore.
Helping people makes them feel important and enhances their self-esteem.
In a relationship, one might think that they have hit the jackpot and are with someone who is genuinely
kind and caring. They may have met at a charity event or as volunteers in a meals on wheels kitchen.
But over time, they see less and less of the White Knight Narcissist's good side.
Intimacy subsides. All the good deeds always seem to be done for someone else at their expense.
In some cases, the White Knight Narcissist may take off the mask of “do-gooder” at home. After a while,
their behaviour may become just as devaluing and hurtful to their spouse as any other type of Narcissist.
Who has not seen a White Knight Narcissist in the office?
You might think that they would be loved by their staff, but that is usually not the case. Take someone
who works for a charity. They were in therapy to find ways to handle a narcissistic boss.
The boss was described as a public hero and a private tyrant.
As the face of the charity, the boss was portrayed in the media as a fighter for the rights of the
downtrodden. Those who worked for him saw his other side. He devalued his colleagues and everyone who
worked for him was afraid of incurring his wrath. He had a bad temper and thought nothing of publicly
humiliating anyone people who displeased him. In reality, he was more horror than hero, despite his
public persona as a good guy. White Knight Narcissists get their narcissistic supplies from doing good
deeds and being seen as great human beings. The reality is that doing good deeds is just another way
for them to seize the spotlight and shore up their shaky self-esteem. It might be okay to
tolerate the benefits from your friendly White Knight Narcissists’ need to be seen as special.
That is preferable than them actively wanting to harm other people.
